02-13-2011 09:01 PMI assume that he meant twins (older 272) from his original question, so I would think that we have a winner at 85mph.

02-15-2011 02:22 PMThere was a guy from the Cayman Islands with t/ blown 454s claiming near 600 hp each minus the silent thunder and running 2" shorties from Imco claiming 90 mph with a 272. He was last seen on OSO. Originally Posted by fund razor

02-15-2011 08:19 PMI love 242s. Great boat. I think 70 is a big speed for that boat.
Not sure I want any part of 80.

I don't think he'll see 80...more like 73 MAYBE 74 but you're right particularly without hydraulic steering
